This gorgeous ring, valued at $3,410.00 retail, is made of 18K yellow gold. The ring features 1.15 carats worth of precious gems including 16 round cut white diamonds and 16 princess cut dark blue sapphires.
The auction reads, “Oscar Heyman, founded in 1912, is a New York manufacturer of the very finest precious stone jewelry; one of a handful of family-owned shops still dedicated to European-style craftsmanship and ”by hand” fabrication. The family of six brothers and three sisters emigrated from Latvia in the early 1900’s. Having apprenticed at a Faberge workshop in Russia, two of the brothers had extensive experience with platinum, a new metal at that time. Another brother was skilled at tool making. Together, they were able to establish a self-contained company where quality could be monitored at all stages.
“To this day, the firm continues to make its own tools, alloy its own platinum and gold as well as design and create each piece of jewelry to demanding specifications. Oscar Heyman continues to be a supplier and a key source for the finest retail jewelers worldwide.”
